HSBC BBintang accept cheque placement (placement date same as cheque clearance date) while Jln Ampang don't accept cheque at all. The HQ staff very lansi.

Don't accept cheque placement then can only place by cash and cashier order?

So far have not encounter any bank that does not do cheque placement for me.

Yea. Good. No point waste time and brain cells calculating and maintaining all those CASA money.

He claims the placement can only be done through CASA account

which mean the cheque must be cleared first in the account before can participate in the campaign.

I waited almost 1 hour and no placement made.

The HQ CS personnel at counter no. 20 very picky and cocky.

unbelievable even foreign FI also having this kind of inconsistent service level.

Anyone know how to deal with banker check in foreign currency ? Can i deposit it directly with the check deposit machine ? Kindly advise. TQ

You should have asked in a separate forum. This one we are dealing with FD only.

Anyway the answer is yes from my experience with Citibank. But local banks may be different. They charge much higher fees compared with foreign banks and longer time for the money to appear in your account.

Just terminate 1 CIMB eFD. Surprisingly the amt immediately shown in the online acct and I GIRO it out. Last year it took almost one day for the amt to show in the online acct. That's good and an improvement by CIMB for its customers.

Yes, CIMB rocks. I have both hsbc and cimb fd accounts. hsbc just sucks compared to cimb.

Hi, would like to seek some advice.

Yesterday I tried placing eFD in Maybank - debited from my savings account. It's suppose to take 1 working day for the eFD number to appear, right? But until now if I check under Accounts & Banking > Fixed Deposits > View My Fixed Deposit Accounts, it says 'do not have any eFixed Deposits Accounts'. Did I miss something here?

Are you first time do the e-placement? For first timer it will take few days if not mistaken.

Yes, first time. Ok, will check again in a few days. Thanks!

Now extended to 10 July 2014

can I know if terminate on the morning maturity date can immediately get shown the principal ?

if online transfer to Maybank via eGIRO, say few hundrek, what is the charges ?

Don't really get your question.

Principal amount should be available once you terminate it.
eGIRO is flat rate 10 cents for all banks now.

Last year, for CIMB it was 1 day later before it shown in the online acct (for eFD). But yesterday it was immediate. So this does depends on the banks involved. By right it should be immediate.

I've just been waiting out on the OPR increase just like everyone else..

BR kaki's, I remembered there was a time where there were inconsistencies in the crediting of the monthly interest. Has that been resolved now?

So what day of the month does the interest get credited now? (For new FDs)

If I just placed my FD last month (less than 30 days), will I still get the interest this month?

The crediting of the monthly interest issue is actually BR side not informing customer on one of their products which changed to 1st of the month crediting of interest. For new FD's, the interest crediting should still be the date that FD is placed.


You mean the bank has already increased the loan repayment amount ?

We are still waiting for July 10 BNM meeting.
